Chapter 337: A Powerful Ally

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Don’t make wild guesses. Mother must have her reasons for doing this. Although we can’t help Mother, at least we can make her not worry.”

Although Da Bao was also full of worries and questions, he had to take on the responsibility as an elder brother now. If something serious had not happened, his mother would never have entrusted them to someone else to protect.

He only hated himself for being still young and not very capable. He couldnt stay by his mother’s side and help her, so he could only take good care of his younger siblings.

“Mother!”

“Mother, you’re back!”

“Mother!”

The babies sitting on the threshold suddenly stood up and rushed out with joy. Da Bao and his brother also got up. Sure enough, they saw MO Ruyue walking in from the entrance of the courtyard.

“I’m sorry I’m late. You’ve been waiting anxiously.”

MO Ruyue held the three babies in her arms and reached out to the brothers, Da Bao and Er Bao, who were following behind her. However, only Er Bao ran over without hesitation, while Da Bao slowly followed behind and stopped when he was one step away from her.

“Mother, are you preparing to leave?

Er Bao’s words made MO Ruyue’s heart ache. She knew that he was the most sensitive among all the babies, but he had to act like an elder brother, so he couldn’t act coquettishly, nor could he show anxiety and panic.

He was forcing himself to become an “adult” who exceeded his actual age!

“Yes, I’ll leave after I get the information I want.”

Even though she felt pain and reluctance in her heart, MO Ruyue still chose to tell him the truth.

The babies were her family in this world, and Gu Ying was her family in both her previous and current lives. No matter who it was, she would not give up. “Mother, don’t worry. I’ll take good care of my younger siblings.”

Da Bao had said the same thing more than once, but there seemed to be something more to his tone this time.

“Yes. This time, Mother is going to find someone who is extremely important to Mother. After finding him, I will come back. It may take a little long, but I will definitely come back before the Lantern Festival. In addition to accompanying you on the festival, I will also arrange for your new academy.”

Although IMO Ruyue couldn’t tell the babies the specific reason, she would tell them her next plan. This way, the babies would have something to look forward to, and the waiting days wouldn’t be so difficult.

The babies listened attentively, unlike before when they fought to speak and ask questions. They just listened quietly and looked at her eagerly, as if she would disappear if they blinked.

MO Ruyue felt very uncomfortable when she saw this scene. She suddenly felt that her decision seemed a little cruel.

However, when she thought about her and Gu Yings past, and that he might also be looking for her, she could no longer hold back.

“I’m sorry, my babies. Just let Mother be willful this once.”

It only took two nights for Ye Youwei to bring IMO Ruyue the news she wanted.

“Lady Qin, I have to say that the person you are looking for is a rare talent. My husband has already sent out the most elite spies under his command, but they still can’t find any clues about him. However, according to some information fragments you provided, they still locked onto three cities.”

She pointed at the three cities that had already been marked out. They were Xu City, which was two hundred miles away from here, yang city, which was one hundred and fifty miles away from Xu City, and Lin City, which was one hundred miles away from Ping City.

Of the three cities, Yang City was no longer under the jurisdiction of the prefecture, while the other two were under the jurisdiction of the magistrate, Duanmu Xize.

Currently, the cities where the murders had taken place were scattered in several different manors, the furthest one being nearly a thousand miles away from each other. No one knew how the murderer had been able to travel a distance of a thousand miles in a few days, and then calmly leave after committing these murders.

Some said that the murderer could travel thousands of miles in a day by shrinking the distance. Some said that the murderer was not alone and had other accomplices. Some even said that the murderer was the soul reaper from the King of Hell’s Palace. The victims of those bloody cases were all heinous villains and should have been killed long ago.

There were all sorts of different statements, casting a mysterious shadow over the already terrifying murder case.

The three cities that Ye Youwei had circled out weren’t far from the furthest one, but even so, it would still take a long time to cover a distance of hundreds of miles.

“Alright, I’ll be leaving then.”

MO Ruyue raised her hand and was about to take the map away, but Ye Youwei unexpectedly pulled the map back, causing her to miss.

“Lady Qin is really an impatient person. I haven’t finished speaking, you don’t need to be in a hurry, right?”

Ye Youwei smiled and pointed at the chair beside the table, indicating for MO Ruyue to sit down and talk.

MO Ruyue wasn’t in the mood to chat with anyone at all, but for the sake of Ye Youwei’s information, she sat down patiently and was ready to hear what she had to say.

“Lady Qin, no matter what reason your friend has, the crime he committed is not an ordinary murder case. Now, a total of three prefects have issued arrest warrants. Have you ever thought about what you will do after you find him?”

“Of course, with his ability, he can indeed hide and never appear in front of others. But as long as he appears by your side, won’t those fish that have escaped the net point their fingers at you again, and then implicate you and your child?”

Ye Youwei analyzed carefully and saw that MO Ruyue’s expression started to turn serious.

“Lady Qin, I don’t think your friend will stop until he uproots this organization, but there are so many people, he can’t catch all of them in one fell swoop. As long as there is one person who is still out there, your friend will never be able to appear in public, especially by your side.”

“Although I don’t want to inquire about your private affairs, but that person is obviously very important to you, right?”

When she spoke, her attitude was gentle and restrained. There was no overbearing feeling, and she did not make people feel offended. It was obvious that she was very good at talking.

“Do you have any good suggestions?

MO Ruyue didn’t answer her question directly, but Ye Youwei had already gotten the answer she wanted.

Other than her late husband, a wife also had a blue confidant. This Lady Qin was really very interesting and made people want to. She was an unstoppable person!

Even though Ye Youwei’s interest in MO Ruyue had increased by a few levels, she still maintained an appropriate smile and responded to the question.

“If I can get the help of a powerful ally, those things just now won’t be a problem. What do you think, Lady Qin?”

Hearing this, MO Ruyue realized that Ye Youwei wanted to poach Gu Ying after discovering his powerful abilities. No wonder Ye Youwei agreed so readily and gave him the information so quickly. Such a gesture of goodwill was indeed hard to refuse.

“When Gu Ying first joined the blood tower, I’m afraid that the tower master also said the same thing.”

Of course, she didn’t want Gu Ying to return to that kind of life. Since she could return to the sunlight, so could he.

“Lady Qin, I think you’ve misunderstood. I don’t want him to join, but just want an ally. This is not a subordinate relationship, but an equal relationship. It’s just like how you’ll help me when I need help, but only when it’s necessary.”

Ye Youwei explained patiently. She believed that these words would be enough for MO Ruyue to weigh the pros and cons..
